1Opinion of the Court

KONDUROS, J.:

Edward Whitner appeals his convictions for (1) possession with the intent to distribute (PWID) marijuana within close proximity of a school; (2) PWID crack cocaine within close proximity of a school; (3) PWID marijuana; and (4) trafficking crack cocaine. Whitner contends the trial court erred in failing to suppress a statement he made before he was informed of his Miranda 1 rights. Whitner further argues the trial court violated his Sixth Amendment right to confrontation by limiting his cross-examination of a witness. We affirm.
